Twice the size of Wales, the Dominican Republic is growing in popularity and it’s easy to see why...
"Luxury all-inclusive resorts dot the coastline; sun-worshippers and water-babies revel in the naturally idyllic setting, exhilarating activities, world-class golf and warm Caribbean waters."

In the far east of the island, Punta Cana is ready-made for relaxation; while capital Santo Domingo – particularly the Zona Colonial, with its beautifully restored monasteries and cobblestone streets where conquistadors once roamed, is well worth a visit too.
